Chippewa Scrap Quilt

June 17, 2014

I made a dent in my scrap bin! Yeah right. But I did put some of my scraps to use and made this quilt…aptly named after our street. You know you’re out of clever quilt names when you start naming them after streets.

This one is about 44” square. A perk of having my 7 year old home all summer is he can hold up quilts for pictures…and he’s easily bribed with gum.

I drew this one out in my old school graph paper notebook. It’s still the best way to play with ideas and figure out patterns. :) If there’s interest I’ll post my measurements when I finish the quilt…I think it makes such a unique/modern baby quilt!

Plus using up scraps is always a great…so I can buy more fabric…and make more scraps. ;)

I really like this one! I'm working on three of your quilts right now for my boys… Busy Kid, Touchdown and the Squares and Stripes patterns… just realized the other day that everything I was working on was yours and realized I just finished an easy bake quilt about a month ago….All this to say that I just love your work! and how it is truly uniquely you and it inspires me! thank you!

Love this quilt Allison….well, love all your work and one of my bucket list wishes is to meet you one day! Oh and that lemon blueberry cheesecake recipe is fantastic! Made it for Father's Day and is now our family FAVORITE! Thanks so much for posting!

what a wonderful modern quilt.! I'd love to try my hand at making one. I am the worlds slowest quilt maker but I love your patterns for the same reason Kathy does; they're fun to make and easy to follow. I'm working on "Breezy" right now
